Abstract

Considering that the construction of knowledge promotes the conscious autonomy of human actions and that education is the starting point for the formation of conscious citizens who are responsible for their actions, we set out to propose an educational work that takes students to experiences in an estuarine environment and that can lead them to in loquo observations of the biotic and abiotic interactions that occur in the physical environment of the mangrove ecosystem. Given the observed findings, concrete elements are obtained for problematization in an interdisciplinary approach, so that the contents present in the school curriculum make sense to those who are learning and to those who are teaching. Based on a field study, in an activity previously prepared and mediated by questions to be answered about the mangrove ecosystem, the perception of the students' views was directed to the diversity present in this estuarine environment in a transdisciplinary connection, in the construction of knowledge that is significant to biodiversity, questioning and correlating knowledge in search of the preservation of the diverse forms of life, in a constant elliptical movement between action, reflection and action.
